Ozonolysis allows the cleavage of alkene double bonds by reaction with ozone. Depending on the work up, different products may be isolated: reductive work-up gives either alcohols or carbonyl compounds, while oxidative work-up leads to carboxylic acids or ketones.
during the processingg some compounds are formed such as molozonoid
this reaction is somewhat same to that  of the reaction of alkyne with red hot iron tube
